Subject: 2019 Community Bond Advisory Committee Report to Council
Dear Mayor and Council:
After months of gathering data, asking hard questions, and debating vigorously, the 2019 Town of
Addison Bond Advisory Committee recommends a targeted, five-part bond issue valued at $85.62
million. We believe that these five issuances address Addison’s current needs while also opening the
door to future growth.
The 28-member committee (see attached roster), appointed by the Mayor and City Council, had one of
the highest participation rates of past committees, demonstrating our commitment. The committee
members’ questions regarding project costs and scope, as well as tax rates and timing of obligations,
showed our fiscal responsibility. After much deliberation, we reduced the original $223 million proposal,
to $85.62 and chose to divide the projects into five categories to provide voters’ understanding.
While we did not agree on everything, the committee did agree that the Town’s staff, led by Ms. Lisa
Pyles, Director of Public Works and Engineering Services, did a great job being open and transparent
about the realities facing Addison and its infrastructure. We appreciated the honest, detailed reports, as
well as the staff’s candid and timely responses to our questions.
We asked tough questions about the state of our assets, the timing on various requests, and the
forecasting and management of those assets to properly plan for replacement. City Manager Wes
Pierson and Lisa Pyles both made it clear that the new Town Asset Management Report gave Addison
a framework to identify all of these in a timely fashion, as well as to create a plan to monitor these
5
assets more closely in the future. In addition, the arrival of the new Cotton Belt station added a new
time pressure for addressing many of these issues.
The Committee was mindful of the need for transparency in its deliberations and stewardship of its
responsibilities, and the financial implications of much needed road repairs, facility improvements, and
service enhancements. The members and Town staff were challenged to consider the impact of their
decisions on all of Addison’s constituents – those who live, work, and/or play here.
Changes to tax structure of any kind are certain to draw public scrutiny. Should Addison voters approve
all five bond propositions ($85.62 million), assuming the recommended projects are constructed when
planned, we could face an average property tax increase of $0.11 per $100 valuation. The Committee
recognized the need to balance the potential impact on the tax rate against responsible asset
management.
It is important to note that approving municipal tax rate changes do not always result in an increase in
taxes. For example, in 2012 Addison voters approved a tax increase, yet through astute financial
management by staff and market reality, the Town has been able to fund projects, retire obligations,
and, when necessary, increase debt while NOT raising the Town’s debt tax rate. In fact, Addison’s tax
rate has actually decreased in recent years.
Given the town’s fiscally responsible record, the recent upgrade of our bond rating, and the
transparency of the staff throughout this process, the Committee supports the attached
recommendations as reasonable, affordable, and necessary improvements that will keep Addison
moving forward and relevant into the future.
Therefore, in response to its charter and after thorough study, the Committee recommends that the
Council approve the projects so designated in this report and move forward with a municipal bond
election asking our citizens to invest further in the community.
As requested, the Bond Advisory Committee stands ready to assist in this effort as the Town Council
feels appropriate.
Respectfully submitted.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 7

Addison, Texas’ 2019 Bond Advisory Committee
Executive Summary
OVERVIEW
Tasked with evaluating the state of the Town of Addison’s infrastructure and future planning
needs, the 2019 Addison Bond Advisory Committee was formed to work with town staff and
advise the Mayor and City Council as to the Committee’s view regarding (a) whether a bond
issue was needed, and (b) if so, for which projects and for what amounts.
The 28-member committee met nine times over a five-month period with an average
attendance of 86%, one of the highest rates of involvement as noted by Town staff. During this
time, the committee explored approximately $223 million in projects identified by the Town staff.
After much discussion, research, and work with staff, the committee recommends five bond
propositions for a total of $85.62 million.
APPROACH
During the fall of 2018, the Addison City Council first discussed the need to identify, define, and
prioritize important projects necessary to maintain the Town’s infrastructure and prominent
competitive position among its Metroplex peers. Ongoing discussions, partly driven by the
institution of a structured Asset Management process initiative, resulted in the decision to
empanel a citizen’s advisory committee to explore these needs and to recommend actions to
the Mayor and City Council.
Council and city management chose this community outreach format to combine citizen and
senior staff expertise based on national data and best practices that show successful bond
issues involve a bridge between the town and the residents it serves. Initial appointments to this
very important committee, four per councilmember, began in November 2018 and concluded in
early January 2019. The organizational/kickoff meeting of the newly constituted committee was
held on January 30, 2019.
8
STAFF AND COMMITTEE COOPERATION
The City Manager made members of the Town’s senior management team available to the
group and charged them with answering Committee questions and contributing their expertise
and advice to committee members. This expertise was very helpful to the Committee.
The City Manager designated Ms. Lisa Pyles, Addison’s Director of Public Works and
Engineering Services, to serve the Committee (and staff) as a liaison to the Town and
coordinator of needed resources. Ms. Pyles began by conducting the organizational meeting of
the Committee and briefing the Committee members on the background of Bond Elections,
including parameters typically considered for bond eligible projects.
COUNCIL EXPECTATIONS
An important part of Ms. Pyles’ briefing involved reviewing the Council’s expectations for the
Committee:
• To assess and review information related to proposed future capital projects;
• To make a recommendation to Council as to whether a bond election should be called;
• If choosing to recommend a bond election, to provide input in developing a final list of
proposed projects; and
• To serve as community advocates for the bond program election, if Council decides to
call one.
COMMITTEE ORGANIZATION
The Committee elected two members to lead the committee: Chair Ralph Doherty and Vice-
Chair Bruce Arfsten. In a subsequent action the Chair appointed Dialog Managers for each
functional area. These managers were selected and tasked to work with Addison’s staff to
facilitate the exchange of information between the Committee and the Town, including providing
information to the Committee regarding their assigned area when the Addison senior manager
was absent. Committee members serving in this capacity were:
9
• General Services - Colleen Campbell
• Infrastructure – Lary Brown
• Parks - Kent Domingue
• IT - Edwin Keith
• Finance - Taylor Bowen and Nancy Craig
SENIOR STAFF PARTICIPATION
As part of the Committee’s work, staff made presentations regarding each functional area of the
town having bond-eligible needs. These meetings began in earnest in February and continued
into early April with background briefings conducted by members of Addison’s senior
management team as follows:
• General Services 1 & 2 – Rob Bourestom
• Infrastructure/Streets– Jason Shroyer
• Parks – Janna Tidwell
• IT – Hamid Khaleghipour
• Special Area Studies – Charles Goff
• Municipal Finance – Olivia Riley
• Debt Capacity – Nick Bulaich (Hilltop Securities, consultant)
The content of each briefing followed a similar pattern, including a review of the department’s
scope of responsibility, current status, and high priority needs. After understanding each
project’s details and ranking them by importance based on various criteria, the committee then
turned its focus to estimated cost and time information. Each Director entertained questions
from the Committee and provided additional information when asked.
PROJECT PRIORITIZATION
Following the last of the functional presentations, the Committee and staff identified 21 bond-
eligible projects. Subsequently, the Committee met to rank or prioritize each project in
10
consultant-led sessions using electronic keyboards combined with an online survey tool used to
score each participant’s individual choices (votes). Following the completion of these two
exercises, the consultant. Ms. Karen Waltz, presented the summary results to the group and led
a discussion on the conclusions drawn.
This unique approach – capturing each individual’s perspective and calculating individual scores
(as well as the total) for each project – ensured that every participant’s voice was heard and that
their opinions were factored into the final result. The same approach was used with Addison’s
staff and provided an interesting comparison of results – both the staff and Committee had
almost identical results for the top seven items. There was also significant agreement as to
which projects could be deferred. These results supported the validity of the approach and the
importance of the briefings and staff support in studying the proposed projects.
RECOMMENDED PROJECTS
Once the ranking exercises and mathematical weighting of each individual project were
completed, the Committee initiated discussions focused on combining proposals into groups
that would best present the projects to voters for ease of understanding and to provide options.
The Committee divided the recommended projects into the following five proposal categories:
• Priority Road Projects: Road/traffic assets that have lived beyond their usefulness and
are “code red” in the Town’s Asset Management report
• Key Road Projects: Road/traffic assets that are nearing the end of their usefulness and
are “code yellow” in the Town’s Asset Management report
• Building Improvement Projects: Facilities that are at or near the end of their useful life;
that violate the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or other federal statutes; and/or
otherwise do not function as needed
• Recreation and Lifestyle Projects: Athletic Center and outdoor assets that are at or
near the end of their useful life, and/or that violate ADA or other federal statutes
• Investing in the Future Project: Funds earmarked for potential land purchases by the
Town to address future development that require timely action

IMPORTANT QUESTIONS
QUESTION #1: Is a bond election necessary for Addison?
The Committee agreed that a bond issue is necessary to address important infrastructure repair
projects. This decision was based on the definition of “bond-eligible” that included a one-time
investment as opposed to on-going maintenance and a long-lived asset, as opposed to an
asset/project that would be completed and used within a year. Several projects, such as the
HVAC systems that rely on the banned substance, Freon, and the failing lining of the Les Lacs
storm water pond, made it clear that a bond issue was needed.
QUESTION #2: Can Addison support a bond election from a fiscal standpoint?
Based on the Town’s fiscal status indicators, including its implementation of the Asset
Management report, its history with previous bond elections, as well as bond ratings that are at
the highest achievable levels (Standard & Poor’s (AAA) and Moody’s (its recently upgraded
from Aa1 to Aaa)), Committee members believed that the Town of Addison could support a
general obligation bond issuance. At the same time, Committee members decided that the
recommended projects were appropriate and fiscally responsible.
QUESTION #3: Which projects should be included in a bond election, and at what
amount?
After agreeing that a bond issue was necessary, the Committee discussed and evaluated which
projects should be included, exploring the details to determine costs that could be removed or
reduced. By consensus, the Committee decided to recommend a total package of $85.62 million
out of the total of $223 million in identified projects to the Council, including the following
projects and costs (in millions) – *See Note below:

CLOSING COMMENTS
The members of Addison Community Bond Advisory Committee took their responsibilities
seriously. The group prepared for meetings, studied the issues, debated choices, and
developed bond-worthy recommendations after a thorough exploration of the state of the
Town’s infrastructure. Important components of Committee dialog centered on the proposed
projects’ current status, Asset Management Assessment status/scores, and how to propose a
set of investments giving the Council, the staff, and the citizens the insight that the time for
these investments is now. The Committee believes that this executive summary and
accompanying documents does so.
The Committee concluded that the recently adopted Asset Management process and
accompanying rating system offers fact-based guidance to the Council and staff as to the
necessity of investing in the timely maintenance of Addison’s assets – infrastructure. The Asset
Management process and rating system offers a superb planning tool to all involved. It points
out in an unbiased fashion what investments should be made and the optimum timing of them in
order to maintain the “health” of the town, our superb credit rating, and Addison’s fiscal
management reputation. We trust that the current and future Councils will place high value and
credibility in these capabilities.

Basics of Municipal Debt
28
35
Why Use Municipal Debt? To finance projects, capital assets, or make improvements to existing
assets over their useful lives with a variety of repayment options
So future beneficiaries pay their “fair share” for publicimprovements/service - debt is repaid overtime by citizens who are usingthe debt-financed asset
To finance larger projects on a more timely basis as compared to ‘pay asyou go’ funding
To help minimize the volatility of the property tax and/or user rates ascompared to ‘pay as you go’ funding
To take advantage of tax-exempt, low-cost, long-term financing
29
What are the Uses for Municipal Debt?

Addison’s Tax Rate Components
Addison’s Fiscal Year 2019 total tax rate is $0.55000 per$100 of Taxable Assessed Valuation (“TAV”).
Addison’s municipal Tax Rate is divided into fourcomponents: Interest and Sinking (I&S) can only be used to pay the Town’s
annual bonded debt payments - $0.142648
Maintenance and Operations (M&O) used for operating expensesof the Town, such as compensation and benefits, parks, streets,facilities, and other on-going operating costs - $0.377435
Economic Development Fund - $0.023716
Infrastructure Investment Fund - $0.006201
33
Tax-Supported Debt – 10-Year Capacity at Current I&S Rate

Remaining Tax-Supported Capacity Underlying assumptions:
Based on the Town’s existing Interest & Sinking tax rate of$0.142648 and Town Officials’ tax base growth projections;Debt is assumed to be sold over a 10 year period
Each additional $0.01 of debt service tax rate equalsapproximately $9.1 million of additional capacity (the inverseapplies as well)

The kick-off meeting of the Community Bond Advisory Committee was held on January 30, 2019 at the Addison Conference Center in the Acacia Room.
The committee members present were: Nancy Craig, Mary Jo Cater, Susan M. Halpern, Virginia Wallace, Nancy Williams, Bob Catalani, Colleen Campbell, Eileen Resnik, Suzie Oliver, Edwin Keith, Ralph Doherty, Kent Domingue, Craig Reynolds, Taylor Bowen, Liz Oliphant, Jimmy Niemann, Bruce Arfsten, Denise Quintanilla, Lary Brown, Jason Rivera, Darren Gardner, Brooks Haley, Margie Gunther, Chris DeFrancisco, Jerry Dougan, JT McPherson, Rob Wright, Juli R Branson.
Staff members present were: Olivia Riley, Amanda Turner, Janna Tidwell, Rob Bourestom, Hamid Khaleghipour, Charles Goff, Jason Shroyer, Ashley Mitchell, Shawn Cheairs, Bill Hawley, Miesha Johnson, and Lisa Pyles.
Council Members present were: Ivan Hughes and Marlin Wileson.
Mayor Joe Chow opened the meeting by thanking the Committee for their service.
Lisa Pyles, Infrastructure and Development Services Director, presented information to the Committee about the purpose and role of the Committee, the bond program development process, the bond election schedule, the Asset Management Plan, project selection and scoring methodology, basics of municipal debt and debt capacity, the written report that will be submitted to Council, and the structure and schedule of upcoming meetings.
The Committee elected Ralph Doherty as Chair, and Bruce Arfsten as Vice-Chair. The Committee tabled the election of a Secretary to a future meeting.
During and after the presentation, the Committee discussed several questions. Staff members provided answers to those questions.
Is there a fixed dollar amount that we use to determine assets to be placed in bond consideration?
No, there is no fixed amount. The considerations are whether the project warrants being included in a bond program and the expected life of the improvement.
42
What is the timeframe of the assets moving from the green zone to the yellow zone and eventually into the red zone?
Generally, it is based on industry standards of the life expectancy of that asset. Once an asset is installed, routine maintenance inspections will be conducted that will enable staff to gauge the remaining life of the asset and whether its life expectancy can be lengthened.
Will the committee be able to view the staff’s ranking of all proposed projects? If so, when?
Yes, the committee will be shown that information. The staff will present their rankings to the committee after the committee has ranked all the projects. Also, the committee and staff will discuss the reasons for any discrepancies between the committee’s and staff’s rankings.
Will the committee be able scale a project up or down, or to recommend an alteration to the scope of a project, or are we limited to only what is presented?
To a certain extent, yes, the committee will be able to make recommendations for adjusting the scope of the project. Staff will explain the consequences of scaling the project up or down in scope. Some projects could be far enough along in the design phase that making any significant changes might not be cost effective.
Can we Skype in to the committee meetings?
Since all future meetings will be held at the Addison Service Center, IT will check what options are available at that location.
With 38 Million dollars already approved for Midway Road improvements, how much, if any, of a gap remains to be able to complete the project?
At this time, the approved amount is in line with the expected total costs associated with the project and we do not anticipate having any remaining gap. As with any project this could change as we finish design and bid the project.
What is the 4.1% growth rate for bonds based on?
Financial department personnel conducted a trend analysis and have based this assumption off that research. This assumption is reevaluated on an annual basis.
What is the maximum amount the Town could issue without affecting the tax rate? What are the consequences of issuing more debt than that?
Our limit for issuance is currently at $3.69 million dollars. The committee can recommend a higher amount for issuance but there would be an equivalent increase to the portion of the Town’s Interest and Sinking (I&S) tax rate. This would then need to be compensated for an equivalent increase in the Towns tax rate or a corresponding decrease in the portion of the tax rate that funds the Town’s Maintenance & Operations (M&O) portions of the annual budget.
43
How much would the tax rate need to increase to issue more than the $3.69 mil? How much funding can the committee recommend without affecting the AAA bond rating?
The actual increase in the tax rate and effect on the bond rating for going over the allotted $3.69 Mil is unknown at this time; further financial analysis would need to be conducted for us to arrive at a fair estimate in the event of these scenarios.
Is it important to have a date as to when the associated project costs were generated?
Yes, it is important and those dates and how the costs associated with each project will be explained as the projects are presented.
What is Jacobs Engineering Group doing in order to provide us with a fair and accurate cost projection?
Jacobs is utilizing many different avenues to arrive at a fair and accurate cost evaluation for each project. They are evaluating the entire scope of the project from beginning to end including but not limited to design, construction, and inspection. They are also using current market values; past, present and future projects from other municipalities and entities; and they are factoring in inflation and other increases in costs. This information will be explained in more detail when projects are presented to the committee.
Is the 100% design cost the final cost for the project?
Not necessarily but it should be close, we do add in a contingency amount to try to limit any unforeseen overages on our estimates. Contingencies will be explained in more detail when we present the projects to the committee.
The next Committee meeting will be on February 11, 2019 at the Addison Service Center, 16801 Westgrove Drive at 5:30 to 7:30. The meeting was adjourned at 7:25.

Community Bond Advisory Committee Meeting Meeting Notes February 11, 2019
Session two of the Community Bond Advisory Committee was held on February 11, 2019 at the Addison Service Center in the Large Break Room.
The committee members present were: Nancy Craig, Mary Jo Cater, Virginia Wallace, Nancy Williams, Bob Catalani, Colleen Campbell, Eileen Resnik, Suzie Oliver, Ralph Doherty, Kent Domingue, Craig Reynolds, Taylor Bowen, Liz Oliphant, Jimmy Niemann, Bruce Arfsten, Denise Quintanilla, Lary Brown, Jason Rivera, Darren Gardner, Margie Gunther, Chris DeFrancisco, Jerry Dougan, JT McPherson, Rob Wright, Juli R Branson.
Staff members present were: Wes Pierson, Olivia Riley, Amanda Turner, Rob Bourestom, Ashlee Powell, Hamid Khaleghipour, Charles Goff, Jason Shroyer, Ashley Mitchell, Shawn Cheairs, Miesha Johnson, and Lisa Pyles.
Council Members present were: Marlin Wileson.
Chair Ralph Doherty opened the meeting by discussing with the Committee their purpose and role in the bond selection process.
Wes Pierson, City Manager welcomed and thanked the committee for their time and efforts and discussed the keys to a successful bond process.
Rob Bourestom, Director of General Services and Ashlee Powell, Management Assistant for General Services presented the General Services Department projects for bond consideration: HVAC Replacement Proposal and Facility Accessibility Modification Proposal
During and after the presentation, the Committee discussed several questions. Staff members provided answers to those questions.
Will we receive a list of all projects that are up for Bond Committee deliberation?
Yes, staff can compile a list and have it available at the February 11th meeting.
Rob Bourestom pointed out during his presentation that there had been a reevaluation of the Town’s facilities condition and the new Facility Condition Index (FCI) is 9.35 not the 17.7 that is in the PowerPoint presentation.
68
The score of 17.7 in the presentation was a miscalculation, the correct score is 9.35. The scale is set in such a manner that the lowest score would represent a building that is in very good condition. The scale is as follows: 0-5 is good, 5-10 is fair, 10-30 is poor and >30 is critical or failed.
The committee asked, and the staff answered, several questions regarding the specifics of the HVAC units being replaced, including:
Are there specific HVAC units that have been selected for replacement and are they energy efficient?
Yes, we have specific units that we will be replacing, and a list detailing those units has been attached to the notes. The new HVAC units to be installed will be at least one energy efficient rating above the minimum required by the building codes.
Did we consider completing any other building improvements along with the HVAC replacement?
At this time there are no other building improvements that have been taken into consideration with the replacement of the HVAC units.
Does the HVAC replacement include any accompanying services?
The proposal is for the replacement of the listed HVAC units but will include an Energy Management System for more energy efficient operations.
It was mentioned during the Americans with Disabilities (ADA) Facility Accessibility presentation that our facilities were found to have approximately 430 violations, are there any fines associated with these violations? Is there a specific deadline for our facilities to have our known violations corrected?
No, violations do not result in a fine. While there is not a specific deadline for any one item, we have a 20-year plan in place to remedy all deficiencies. If we are making continual progress on that 20-year plan, we are not in violation of our plan. However, if progress is not being made on our 20-year plan, the Department of Justice can intervene to enforce the expedition of the correction of any deficiencies that have been reported.
Regarding the Facility Utilization presentation, will we have the results of the study and be able to discuss this as part of these bond proceedings?
This study will not be completed in time to be considered for this bond issuance.
Are the projects that staff are bringing to the presentations all considered a “must do”? Would it be beneficial for staff to highlight projects that would be considered a “should do” or “nice to do”?
The projects that will be presented to the committee are, in staff’s opinion, must do projects. It is the committee’s role to question that opinion and to determine if the committee agrees with staff’s assessment. Also, the committee will be asked to rank each of the projects as to their priority. The committee’s final ranking will be presented to Council, who will decide on the final list of projects to be included in a bond program, if one is called.
69
The committee expressed a desire to have more in depth detail of the projects in future presentations. They would also like to be given more information on both the HVAC and ADA presentations that were made tonight.
The next Committee meeting will be on February 25, 2019 at the Addison Service Center, 16801 Westgrove Drive at 5:30 to 7:30. The meeting was adjourned at 7:30.

73
Street Department
Responsible for the management of the Town’s streets, traffic system, solid waste, bulk, brush pickup
167 lane miles of streets 82% concrete 18% asphalt Most streets were built in late 70’s early 80’s with a resurgence in the
early 90’s
41 miles of sidewalk Majority of sidewalks were built during private development projects
Most recent significant road construction – overlay of Belt Line Road
Pavement Management - Condition
Multiple ways to determine the condition of pavement Visual assessment Pavement Condition Index (PCI) Condition is based on number, severity, and type
of pavement distresses present Scale from 0 to 100
Rating Good Satisfactory Fair Poor Very Poor Serious Failed
Range 85 – 100 70 – 85 55 – 70 40 – 55 25 – 40 10 -25 < 10
74
Pavement Management - Condition
Multiple ways to determine the condition of pavement International Roughness Index (IRI) Scale 0 to 1000 0 is perfectly smooth >600 represents significant distress New highways are typically 40 and 60 Levels of 200 to 600 indicate increasingly
damaged or distressed roads Levels over 600 are very poor and reduce
comfortable driving speed
Pavement Management – Data Collection
Town collected data utilizing Automatic Road Analyzer (ARAN) Vehicle 2017 major arterials 2018 collectors and residential streets
Uses high resolution, high speed cameras to collect: Roadway distresses Texture, roughness and rutting data Data with GPS tags Data of adjacent infrastructure
75
Pavement Condition Map
Methodology for Selection
Proposed reconstruction projects were selected based on the following: Pavement condition index (PCI) International roughness index (IRI) Roadway classification and traffic information Work order history
Proposed new roadway construction projects were identified in the Town’s Master Transportation Plan
76
Master Transportation Plan (2016)
Plan Goals: Provide more/better options and features for active
transportation Develop a safer more efficient transportation
network Create memorable places in Addison Develop better east/west connectivity Increase route choices with new connections Support Addison economic development goals Secure a firm commitment for rail in the Cotton Belt
Master Transportation Plan
Established general sections for streets based on street type Right-of-way (ROW) width Location and dimension of median Location and dimension of sidewalks Location and dimension of parkway buffer
Provides options for the various street types
Contemplates significant modification to ROW in most cases

Community Bond Advisory Committee Meeting Meeting Notes February 25, 2019
The third meeting of the Community Bond Advisory Committee was held on February 25, 2019 at the Addison Treehouse Event Room.
The committee members present: Bruce Arfsten, Juli Branson, Lary Brown, Colleen Campbell, Robert Catalani, Mary Jo Cater, Chris DeFrancisco, Ralph Doherty, Kent Domingue, Jerry Dougan, Margie Gunther, Susan Halpern, Edwin Keith, JT McPherson, Jimmy Niemann, Liz Oliphant, Denise Quintanilla, Eileen Resnik, Craig Reynolds, Jason Rivera, Virginia Wallace, and Nancy Williams.
Staff members present: Olivia Riley, Amanda Turner, Rob Bourestom, Hamid Khaleghipour, Charles Goff, Jason Shroyer, Ashley Mitchell, Shawn Cheairs, Janna Tidwell, Wilson Kakembo, Chad Hancock, and Lisa Pyles.
Council Members present: Marlin Wileson and Ivan Hughes.
Chair Ralph Doherty opened the meeting by discussing with the Committee their purpose and role in the bond selection process.
Jason Shroyer, Assistant Director of Infrastructure Services and Engineering presented the Infrastructure Services Department projects for bond consideration: Road Reconstruction Projects (Keller Springs Road, Airport Parkway, Addison Road, Quorum Drive, Montfort Drive) and New Road Construction Projects (Beltway Drive to Gillis Road, Landmark Boulevard to Dallas North Tollway, North Beltwood Parkway to Inwood Road, Beltway Drive to Inwood Road, Artist Way to Addison Road, Beltway Drive to Arapaho Road)
During and after the presentation, the Committee discussed several questions. Staff members provided answers to those questions.
Is there Right of Way (ROW) available to complete the projects as outlined?
The ROW is available for the road construction but if all the Master Transportation Plan elements are to be added to the project we will need to purchase additional ROW.
What will the inconvenience be to drivers and the surrounding residents during the potential reconstruction of Keller Springs Road?
110
There will be an impact to traffic flow during the reconstruction of Keller Springs Road as well as any other street that is reconstructed. Traffic flow is taken into consideration during the design phase of every project and the potential impact to motorists and residents will be minimized as much as practicable to complete the work.
Do we need to replace all water, wastewater and stormwater piping infrastructure every time we reconstruct a street?
While replacing all infrastructure is not required when reconstructing a street, the best practice is to replace the utilities in areas where the utilities might be replaced within the next few years. This prevents having to remove portions of the newly reconstructed street to replace infrastructure underneath it. Doing both utility replacement and roadway reconstruction at the same time, will save money in the long run as well as limiting the number of times traffic flow would be interrupted. The projects that staff has presented include the replacement of the utilities at the time the roadway is reconstructed.
The presentation shows some of the sidewalks will be only six feet wide, is that wide enough to satisfy ADA requirements?
Yes, a six-foot sidewalk would meet the ADA minimum requirement of 5 feet.
What effect if any will the DART Cotton Belt Line have on traffic on Keller Springs Road?
We do not believe that the new DART rail station will have an impact on the traffic of Keller Springs Road.
Would there be improvements to other aspects of the roadway, such as crosswalks, concurrent with the road reconstruction?
Yes, we would make any other necessary improvements in accordance with ADA standards, the Master Transportation Plan, and other Addison standards.
Are the designed medians for safety or aesthetic purposes?
The medians are designed for both safety and visual aesthetics. A median will divide opposing lanes of traffic therefore reducing the likelihood of head on collisions from driving and can be designed to match the desired look that will accomplish meeting the standard of the Addison Brand.
Are there already existing utility easements that the Town can utilize for utility placement?
In some cases, yes, there will be existing easements, but there are a variety of different easements serving different purposes. We must ensure that we are using the proper easements for our intended purposes.
Will the costs be broken down to show each project with and without a median? Can you provide a breakdown of costs for the associated reconstruction projects?
We will provide you with the estimates we have during the April 4th meeting, when finances will be discussed. Please be aware that the cost of the median itself is very small in comparison to the remainder of the project.
111
Why is there a plan to put parallel parking along Airport Parkway?
So as to have Airport Parkway match the Addison Circle area.
If Oncor owns the associated street lighting, will they pay for the new lights or to replace old lights?
We will coordinate with Oncor on the installation of all lighting on any street project we undertake.
How will Montfort Drive transition to Dallas since Addison does not own all the street heading south?
We will coordinate with the City of Dallas to discover what their future plans are. If there are upcoming plans, we will discuss our ability to accomplish our reconstruction plans together.
Does the Montfort project consider the development that is currently planned for the southeast corner of Village on the Parkway?
At this point in our design process it does not. However, if the development is approved and moves forward the developer would be responsible for their portion of the reconstruction effort which would reduce the overall funding impact for the Town’s project.
Where does the volume per day measurement get recorded when collecting traffic count data? How often are traffic counts collected?
We take data from various points along each street to provide a more accurate measure of traffic volume on the entirety of the roadway. We conduct traffic counts every two years generally in the fall after school has started. Our last traffic count was completed in the fall of 2018 and the full report can be found on our website.
https://addisontexas.net/infrastructure/page/streets-traffic-services
A median would inherently remove some accessibility to make turns along a street, how would this limited accessibility affect traffic flow both onto and off Addison Road from the Addison Circle development? How will this limited accessibility affect the increase in traffic flow that corresponds to special events that take place at Addison Circle Park?
The addition of medians, particularly on Addison Road will certainly impact the traffic flow into/out of the park during Special Events. We would expect that impact will be minimal given that the median cuts will have to be lined up with intersections. The businesses along the corridor will see the largest impacts to their current accessibility because of the medians.
Are there currently any plans to underground any of the utilities for the stated projects like what was done on Beltline Rd? Can a utility company decide to underground their utilities at a later date?
No there are no plans to underground any of the utilities by the Town currently. If a utility company wants to underground their utilities, they can do so whenever they like. However, they are required to restore any disturbed material to the same Addison Standards the material was in prior to their work.
What is the proposed timeline for these projects? How will the projects affect the bond funding?
112
Each project will have a varying timeline that would depend on the amount of area the project is to encompass as well as the individual projects scope of work. Keller Springs Road would take approximately 24 months to complete. We would stagger the projects in such a manner as to prevent neighboring north/south or east/west projects from taking place at the same time and thereby reducing traffic flow issues. This will aid in the bond funding issuance as we would only issue the funds needed to complete the project that is currently active.
Can the committee be provided with the current maintenance costs on the proposed reconstruction projects?
Yes, this information can be provided. However, please note that maintenance costs will not necessarily be indicative of the need to reconstruct a road. Very little funding will be expended on a road that has failed as it no longer cost efficient to do so. We will have that information to you as soon as it is compiled.
What roads would be done first? Is the DART rail being taken into consideration? Which two would the Town recommend completing first?
While the DART rail and other railroad crossings will always be considered when developing a new project, more consideration is given to the overall condition of the road. We will utilize the Pavement Condition Index and the International Roughness Index to determine the quality level of each street in town. Following the condition of the road we will consider the level of use of the road and the amount of work that has been done on the road recently (pothole repair, crack sealing, etc.). The two roads that staff recommends as the highest priority are Keller Springs Road and Quorum Drive.
After the presentation, the Chair asked the committee the following question.
What roads does the committee feel are more important to be completed first?
Some members of the committee expressed that the new construction of the roads for Inwood connectors from Beltway and Beltwood would be vital to the redevelopment of the Inwood Road area.
The next Committee meeting will be on March 11, 2019 at the Addison Tree House Event Room, 14681 Midway Road, Suite 200 from 5:30 to 8:30. Dinner will be served. The meeting was adjourned at 7:30.

135
Smart City Concept Definition
7
The Smart City concept integrates information and communication technology, and various physical devices connected to the network of “”Internet of Things”” (IoT) to optimize the efficiency of city operations and services and connect to citizens. (Wikipedia)
What makes Addison a Smarter Town? We believe it is our data and our vision! By leveraging the multiple data sources that we have today and integrating additional datasets, we can design modern programs and services that make Addison a Smarter Town. Through sensors, connectivity, and analytics we can begin our transformation to achieve our goals around energy efficiency, air quality, intelligent transportation, public safety, public health, and other programs focused on improving quality of life for our citizens. In addition, we believe the Smart City concept allows town officials to interact directly with both the community and town staff and to monitor what is happening in the town and how the town is evolving.

Expansion of License Plate Recognition Network (LPR)Bond Project (#1)
• Project Intent :To maximize the use of cutting edge technology to improve Addison’s Public Safety mission to enhance its crime prevention and mitigation strategies.
• How does LPR work?Fixed License Plate Recognition (LPR) cameras take photos of license plates capturing date, time and GPS coordinates of where the photo was taken‐ just like any smartphone camera – then check the image against Federal Agencies databases National Crime Information Center (NCIC) and local agencies flagged vehicles (knows criminals etc.).
Each license plate image captured, along with the data for that image (date, time,
location) is stored in vendor’s datacenter as an LPR record that can be searched only bythe police department for legitimate law enforcement purposes.
Addison owns the LPR data it generates and Addison PD can decide whether they want to share that data with other agencies.

Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS)Bond Project (#2)
• Project Intent :To replace the existing system that has a life expectancy of about 10 years but it
has been in operation for approximately 12 years. Due to the equipment age,
much of the system equipment is no longer available for purchase or supported by
Motorola. To meet the future bandwidth needs of the ATMS, and to provide
a reliable, scalable, and redundant communication system, a core
communication system upgrade/replacement is necessary.• Current Status:
The Town of Addison currently utilizes a broadband wireless communication system to support the Town’s Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS). The wireless communication system consists of Motorola unlicensed point‐to‐point and point‐to‐multipoint technologies designed around a hub and access point architecture.

Proposed Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) Upgrade/ReplacementBond Project (#2)
• Proposed Advanced Traffic Management System upgrade/replacementProposed system will upgrade/replace the core infrastructure, the cellular units, and traffic signal preemption unites.
Advantages:• On demand wireless video streaming.• Integrated battery backup for power fail reporting.• Allows for remote monitoring of intersections.• Minimizes communication outages at the intersections.• Maximizes the efficient movement of vehicles and pedestrians throughout the Town.• Offers new preemption system that allows for the preemption to take effect when the
emergency vehicle is within the set radius for that intersection allowing for traffic clear in front of the first responders and it drastically cut down critical emergency responsetimes.
• Preemption can work through tunnels, overpasses, and between buildings.• Fire Department can monitor travel times and check effectiveness of system for fine
tuning.

Town‐Wide Mesh Wireless NetworkBond Project (#3)
• Project Intent :To reduce operating cost, increase speed and improve capabilities, and establish a common
data transport layer (Backbone layer) to provide the synergy between the existing systems
that are due to be replaced (e.g. Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system,
Fuel Farm, Wireless Camera at Addison Circle Park) and/or they are in the queue to be
implemented (e.g. Cloud Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery System , Police Record
Management System (RMS)).
• Current Status:Currently Town is leasing fiber lines from Spectrum in order to provide both network
connectivity and telecommunication services to the town’s buildings/employees. Current
network layout is a “Star Topology” connecting the Town’s buildings through the Spectrum’s
fiber network.

Town‐Wide Mesh Wireless NetworkBond Project (#3)
Proposed Mesh Wireless Network:Mesh wireless network provides a future‐proof solution with enough capacity to handle the most demanding applications that run over the network today, with ample bandwidth for future expansion. Mesh wireless network technologies meet the requirements of video imaging systems for public safety purposes. In addition to high capacity backhaul for video applications, point‐to‐point gigabit mesh wireless solutions are an ideal way for Addison to enable robust, high‐speed mobile connectivity, even in emergency situations in which communications are required on a moment notice, with all the performance benefits of fiber, while still yielding a significant cost savings compared to metro fiber cabling/leasing.

Automated Meter Reading System (AMRS)Bond Project (#4)
• Project Intent :To install a Fixed Network Advanced Metering Infrastructure
System that will work with all major water meters, with an
expected reading accuracy of 98% or more for all meters in the
system.
• Current Status:Current system is a walk‐by & touch system that requires Utility
Billing staff to use a prob to touch each water meter lid sensor to
capture readings from each water meter through the entire Town.
27
Automated Meter Reading System (AMRS)Bond Project (#4)
Proposed AMRS: Proposed system will use wireless technology to automatically collect consumption, diagnostic and status data from water meters and transfer the data to a central database for billing, troubleshooting (leak detection) and analysis. This system saves the Town the expense of periodic trips to each physical location to read a meter and enable the staff to refocus their energies to other areas of operation.
Another benefit is billing will be based on real‐time consumption. This real‐time data, coupled with analysis, can help both the Town and customers better control water consumption (usage).

Drone TechnologyBond Project (#5)
• Project Intent :To implement a comprehensive solution that empowers the Town's public safety division to use and manage drone technology and build and scale its drone program to complement the existing Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system at North Texas Emergency Communication Center (NTECC).
The real capabilities of drones come from the payload that we decide to attach to the drones (e.g. Thermal Imaging, High resolution cameras for search and rescue, crash reconstruction tool, 3D mapping tool, scene overwatch tool, and container for carrying and remotely dropping equipment in emergency situations such as CO2activated life preservers, IFA (Individual First Aid) kits, or even radios.

Community Bond Advisory Committee Meeting Meeting Notes March 11, 2019
The fourth meeting of the Community Bond Advisory Committee was held on March 11, 2019 at the Addison Treehouse Event Room.
The committee members present: Bruce Arfsten, Juli Branson, Lary Brown, Robert Catalani, Ralph Doherty, Kent Domingue, Jerry Dougan, Margie Gunther, Brooks Haley, Susan Halpern, Edwin Keith, JT McPherson, Jimmy Niemann, Liz Oliphant, Suzann Oliver, Denise Quintanilla, Craig Reynolds, Jason Rivera, Virginia Wallace, and Rob Wright.
Staff members present: Wes Pierson, Olivia Riley, Rob Bourestom, Hamid Khaleghipour, Charles Goff, Ashley Mitchell, Shawn Cheairs, Janna Tidwell, Chad Hancock, Miesha Johnson and Lisa Pyles.
Council Members present: Marlin Wileson and Ivan Hughes.
Chair Ralph Doherty opened the meeting.
Rob Bourestrom, Director of General Services, presented two projects for bond consideration: Roof Replacement at various town facilities and the Police Gun Range Filtration System.
Hamid Khaleghipour, Interim Deputy City Manager and Executive Director of Business Performance and Innovation, presented the Smart City Concept for bond consideration.
Janna Tidwell, Director of Parks and Recreation, presented four projects for bond consideration: Athletic Club Updates; Les Lacs Pond Improvements; Trail Rehabilitation, Expansion and Wayfinding; and the South Quorum Art Walk
Charles Goff, Assistant Director of Development Services, presented the results of various Special Area Studies and the potential land acquisition associated with them for bond consideration.
During and after the presentation, the Committee discussed several questions. Staff members provided answers to those questions.
The committee was under the impression from a previous bond meeting, that the roof replacement was considered a maintenance item and therefore not eligible for bond consideration?
174
Staff has sought out clarification on this matter and discovered that an entire roof replacement would be bond eligible and therefore the committee is being presented with facilities that need a complete roof replacement for consideration.
All the roofs mentioned were stated to have a life span of 40 years or more, yet none of the roofs proposed have reached that lifespan and many are only about half that age. Is this due to an increase in technology so newer roofs are expected to last longer or are there other factors that have led to our current roofs deteriorating faster than their expected life span? What assurances are in place that proper maintenance will be done on the new roofs if they are to be replaced?
The extended life span is due to new advances in roofing technologies and better management practices. With the newer, more efficient and higher quality management and maintenance practices our new roofs should reach the longer expected life span of 40 years or more. The current roofs are not reaching their expected life span due to not being able to complete all scheduled maintenance due to budget constraints.
Is the gun range at the police station currently in compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards?
OSHA is a federal program and state and local governments do not fall under the OSHA mandates. However, to maintain a safe and healthy work environment and as a best management practice we do our best to adhere to the guidelines that OSHA has set.
Are there any grant funds available for work done at the Police Department?
Staff is currently exploring any grant fund availability for this project, but at this time we do not have any.
Could we close our gun range and use an offsite facility for officer training?
Officers are required to qualify twice a year on several types of weapons, including specialty weapons, this is a 3-4 week process each cycle. The range is also used for regular, required training with weapons as well as taser training. The range needs to be available 24 hours a day to accommodate the various shifts. With the amount of training and qualifying the officers do along with the hours required for the training it is preferable to maintain our own range that is under our control.
Is the lack of a proper gun range for the police officers affecting our ability to recruit candidates to Addison?
The gun range is just one of the areas that a potential candidate would look at when deciding to apply for or accept a job with the Town of Addison. Each candidate has their own individual list of priorities that will influence their decision-making process. However, having a new shooting range with high quality air filtration, can only be a positive for any potential candidates.
What is the life expectancy for the Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS)?
The life expectancy is approximately 10 years. After that time the equipment becomes outdated and obsolete due to the advances in technology which in turn increases the difficulty to maintain due to the lack of available material and technical support.
175
Would the Town still utilize Spectrum for their wireless mesh?
The Spectrum network would be available as a redundancy.
What are the limitations on drones due to the airport or FAA?
Any limitations imposed by the airport or by FAA regulations would be investigated and adhered to prior to the implementation of the Town’s drone usage.
What is the status of the License Plate Recognition (LPR) pilot program? Is this the proper time to approve bond funding for this program?
We’ll begin collecting Data in April and should be complete with the data collection by November.
Regarding the updates to the Athletic Club, there were some updates regarding children between the ages of 8-13. What is the percentage of member families that have children in that age group?
There are 193 members in the 0-7 age group, 123 in the 8-12 and 143 in the 13-18 age group.
Do the proposed improvements to Les Lacs pond include cameras on the walking trail around it?
Yes, there will be cameras installed, however, they will be installed as part of the proposed IT projects and not the proposed Parks project.
Would it be possible to convert Les Lacs pond into a park or green space?
That is certainly something that could be considered and brought up for discussion.
How does bond funding affect any potential land purchased?
Bond funding would give the Town the ability to purchase land in proposed areas of redevelopment as it comes available and reduce the risk of the Town missing out on an opportunity due to a lack of funds readily available.
The committee would like to be presented with any potential recurring costs as well as the upfront project cost, can town staff provide this information where applicable?
Yes, recurring cost estimates can be provided to the committee.
The next Committee meeting will be on April 4, 2019 at the Addison Tree House Event Room, 14681 Midway Road, Suite 200 from 5:30 to 7:30. The meeting was adjourned at 8:30.

Council Members present: Marlin Wileson.
Vice Chair Bruce Arfsten opened the meeting.
Wes Pierson, City Manager, discussed the importance of the Asset Management Plan and how it has informed the bond program discussion.
Karen Walz from Strategic Community Solutions led the Committee in a keypad voting exercise to rank the projects according to the first four criteria, Improved Transportation, Economic Vitality / Development, Safety and Security, and Recreation and Leisure. The results of this first round of project ranking will be discussed in detail at the May 2nd meeting.
During and after the presentation, the Committee asked several questions.
Is everything listed with the roof replacement project part of the actual roof replacement, or are there maintenance items included?
All portions of the roof replacement project that has been presented are necessary elements of a roof replacement. They are not maintenance items.
What is the timeline for completion of the ADA requirements?
179
The ADA Transition Plan is a 20-year plan. Each year, projects will be presented in the annual budget proposals. As major improvement projects are proposed and implemented, ADA compliance projects will be incorporated into the scope of the project.
Are the Master Transportation Plan (MTP) elements required to be completed with these projects?
The City Council has directed that the Master Transportation Plan will be a part of all new roadway construction projects.
The next Committee meeting will be on April 18, 2019 at the Addison Tree House Event Room, 14681 Midway Road, Suite 200 from 5:30 to 7:30. The subject will be an overview of municipal financing and the Town’s capacity to issue debt. The meeting was adjourned at 7:15.

Basics of Municipal Debt
3
Types of Debt – Personal, Corporate, Municipal
4
Personal Debt
A person’s earning potential increases up to retirement
At retirement, a common goal is to be ‘debt‐free’ in order not to pass
on debt to heirs
People can choose to live ‘debt‐free’ by saving money for large purchases or rent/lease major
assets
Corporate Debt
Majority of companies have some form of debt
Debt is a lower cost source of funds and allows a higher return
to the equity investors by leveraging their money
Businesses are allowed to deduct the interest on the debt from
corporate income taxes
Municipal Debt
Cities exist into perpetuity and must always provide services and maintain assets and infrastructure
The cost of improvements is on both current and future users, thereby freeing up funds for
current services
In order to raise $1 million on a $4.7 billion tax base, Addison
would have a one‐time $0.021 tax rate increase. To raise $1 million through the issuance of 20‐year bonds results in $0.0015 tax rate
over a 20‐year period
184
Why Use Municipal Debt?
Finance projects, capital assets, and major improvements to existing assets over their useful lives (useful lives must be at least 20 years) with a variety of repayment options
Future beneficiaries pay their “fair share” for public improvements/service -debt is repaid overtime by citizens who are using the debt-financed asset
Finance larger projects on a more timely basis as compared to ‘pay as you go’ funding
Help minimize the volatility of the property tax collections and/or user rates as compared to ‘pay as you go’ funding
Take advantage of tax-exempt, low-cost, long-term financing
5
What are the Uses for Municipal Debt?
6
Debt Obligations
Roads
Facilities
Parks
Equipment
All projects presented by staff meetthe criteria for debt funding
185
Operating Expenses are NOT Funded by Debt
7
Addison does not use debt to finance its operating expenses
The Town’s Charter and State law requires the Town to maintain a balanced budget
Unlike the Federal government, Addison does NOT operate at a deficit
Legal Requirements of Issuing Debt
8
Texas cities have specific authorization to enter into legal debtobligations as provided in the 1876 State Constitution
All debt obligations must be approved by the City Council and theTexas Attorney General
The approval process for the most common debt obligations is asshown below:
*Note: If bond election fails, Town cannot issue CO’s for that same project for 3 years.

Review of Addison’s Current Outstanding Debt

Addison’s Tax Rate Components
Addison’s Fiscal Year 2019 total tax rate is $0.55000 per $100 of Taxable Assessed Valuation (“TAV”).
Addison’s municipal Tax Rate is divided into four components: Interest and Sinking (I&S) can only be used to pay the Town’s
annual bonded debt payments - $0.142648
Maintenance and Operations (M&O) used for operating expenses of the Town, such as compensation and benefits, parks, streets, facilities, and other on-going operating costs - $0.377435
Economic Development Fund - $0.023716
Infrastructure Investment Fund - $0.006201
10
187
Impact on Average Homeowner 85% of Addison’s property tax collections are generated from commercial
properties and 15% from residential homeowners. The average cost of a commercial property is difficult to determine
because the use determines type and value. For an average homeowner the impact of a 1¢ increase in property taxes
would be as follows:

Community Bond Advisory Committee Meeting Meeting Notes April 18, 2019
The sixth meeting of the Community Bond Advisory Committee was held on April 18, 2019 at the Addison Treehouse Event Room.
The committee members present: Bruce Arfsten, Taylor Bowen, Juli Branson, Lary Brown, Colleen Campbell, Robert Catalani, Mary Jo Cater, Nancy Craig, Chris DeFrancisco, Ralph Doherty, Kent Domingue, Jerry Dougan, Darren Gardner, Brooks Haley, Susan Halpern, Edwin Keith, JT McPherson, Jimmy Niemann, Liz Oliphant, Suzann Oliver, Eileen Resnik, Craig Reynolds, Nancy Williams and Rob Wright.
Staff members present: Wes Pierson, Olivia Riley, Rob Bourestom, Hamid Khaleghipour, Ashley Mitchell, Shawn Cheairs, Janna Tidwell, Wilson Kakembo, Amanda Turner, Ashlee Powell, John Crawford, Charles Goff and Lisa Pyles.
Council Members present: Marlin Willesen and Ivan Hughes.
Lisa Pyles opened the meeting by introducing the financial team involved in the bond process.
Olivia Riley, Chief Financial Officer and Nick Bulaich, Hilltop Securities presented information on the Basics of Municipal Debt.
During and after the presentation, the Committee asked several questions.
Why do we use Certificates of Obligation (CO) rather than General Obligation (GO) Bonds? What are the differences between the two? Is there a difference in the rate between them?
The main difference is a CO does not require a public bond election whereas a GO does. There is a faster issuance time for CO’s. CO’s are also issued if the debt is repaid from an enterprise fund and therefore would not affect the tax rate. Generally, there is not a significant difference in the interest rate between the two different types. Interest rates are primarily impacted by the bond rating and the market.
What all taxes are used in repaying a bond?
Ad Valorem tax is utilized to repay a bond debt.
Does the state govern the use of a CO? Who determines what a CO can be used for?
201
The State has determined that bonds cannot be used for economic development incentives. All other bond policies are set and defined by the Town’s financial and capital policies.
How is the makeup of the $.55 tax rate determined? Is it a fixed rate?
The Economic Development and the Infrastructure Investment Fund rates are set by City Council and can only be adjusted by City Council. The Interest and Sinking (I&S) and the Maintenance and Operations (M&O) rates are not fixed and will be adjusted according to what is needed to pay back the Town’s debt. Whatever amount is needed to pay back the towns debt without excess will be set as the I&S rate and whatever is remaining is used to cover M&O.
Is there a way to see if we would need to have recurring bond issuances?
Yes, the asset management plan is the beginning of this, as it details when we would normally see all the different assets begin to fail and when they would need to be replaced. This will help us plan for future debt as we will have the data to support how much funding would be needed to maintain all the Town’s assets in optimal condition.
What is more important to new businesses, the tax rate or the amenities/ quality of life?
Ultimately this will depend on the desires of each individual business. During an evaluation of where to place your home business both factors must be considered. Ideally a business owner would like to be someplace where the employees can enjoy a great quality of life and still be able to maintain their expenses partly due to a lower tax rate. The Town of Addison strives to provide both benefits to all their businesses both presently and in the future.
The next Committee meeting will be on May 2, 2019 at the Addison Tree House Event Room, 14681 Midway Road, Suite 200 from 5:30 to 7:30. The subject will be a review of the survey polling results. The meeting was adjourned at 7:15.

Addison Bond Committee Keypad Polling

FROM: Karen Walz FAICP, Principal
Strategic Community Solutions LLC
DATE: April 13, 2019
RE: Results of April 4, 2019 Keypad Polling
The City Council of the Town of Addison has appointed a Bond Committee to make recommendations related to a possible bond election for November 2019. The Bond Committee has held a series of meetings to learn about a wide range of projects that could be considered for inclusion in that bond program. The Town chose to use keypad polling as part of the Committee’s discussion process. Strategic Community Solutions LLC was asked to provide the keypad polling system, design and analysis. Keypad polling was conducted as part of the Bond Committee’s meeting on April 4, 2019. This report describes the technique and presents the results of the polling exercise. These are initial results, for use as the Bond Committee continues its deliberations.
Keypad Polling Keypad polling is a technique for obtaining input or feedback from a group of participants. It uses hand‐held keypads and wireless technology to poll all participants at once. The polling is immediate and anonymous. The results are projected on the screen so participants can immediately see the results. As a result, all participants can quickly gain a sense of the group’s degree of agreement and the extent to which an individual’s own perspective is shared by other group members. This technique summarizes the input from all group members to specific questions, so it complements the individual comments received through other participation techniques, such as open‐ended question and answer sessions.
After the session in which the keypad polling is used, the results are exported to an Excel spreadsheet, where they can be evaluated in more detail. This detailed analysis provides a more complete analysis than is possible during the session.
Logistics for April 4th The Committee met at 5:30 p.m. at the Addison Treehouse. Twenty‐one Committee members participated in the keypad polling exercise. However, not all participants answered each question. The attachments to this report include the results of all polling, including the number of responses to each question. In order to gain a sense of the relative importance of each item, the ranking results discussed below are presented as percentages of those who did respond.
The keypad polling exercise considered twenty‐one possible bond projects the Committee had discussed at prior meetings. These projects are listed in Exhibit 1 on the next page. The Committee had previously considered the criteria that should be used to evaluate the importance of each bond project. Committee members provided their suggested criteria to Committee Chair Ralph Doherty. Chair Doherty and Addison’s Infrastructure and Development Services Director, Lisa Pyles, worked together to develop a set of criteria that reflected this Committee input. Eight criteria were defined. These criteria are presented in Exhibit 2. For the purposes of the April 4th keypad polling exercise, only the first four criteria were used. These four – improved transportation, economic vitality / development, safety and

security, and recreation and leisure – are criteria that relate most directly to the experience an Addison resident would have in the community. For this meeting, the Committee members focused just on this aspect of the evaluation. The complete list of criteria will be considered later in the Committee’s deliberations.
Keypad polling slides were used to obtain initial Committee feedback about the importance of each possible project in terms of each of these four criteria. This approach allows the tabulation of feedback according to each criterion, and also permits an evaluation of the projects when all four criteria are considered together. With this format, 84 polling slides were used (as well as two ‘practice’ slides). The results of this polling are presented in the following sections of this report.

This exhibit shows that none of the projects received a majority of responses that the project was “Very Important” when all criteria are considered. It also shows, however, that many projects are considered to be either “Very Important” or “Somewhat Important” by most of the participating Committee members.
Exhibit 4 presents a ranking that considers both the “Very Important” and “Somewhat Important” responses. This exhibit shows that ten of the twenty‐one projects are important to a majority of the participating Committee members.
Both exhibits show that the top four projects for Committee members are those that involve reconstruction of current roadways – Keller Springs Road (#10), Quorum Drive (#12), Montfort Drive (#13) and Addison Road (#14). Over 40% of Committee members rated these projects as “Very

Important”. Project #3, the Roof Replacements on Town Buildings, was the fifth‐highest project in terms of “Very Important” responses. Project #9, for Trail Rehabilitation, Expansion and Way‐finding, was the fifth‐highest project in terms of overall “Important” responses.

Continuing Committee Deliberation These results are initial responses to the information about these projects and the Committee’s discussions through April 4, 2019. At the Bond Committee’s next meeting, on April 18, 2019, Town staff will present additional information about financial issues related to bonds. This new information will add to the Committee’s consideration and will enable them to consider all eight of the criteria for ranking possible bond projects.
After the April 18th meeting, all Committee members will be invited to use an online survey tool to provide input about all projects according to all eight criteria. The results of this added perspective will be provided to the Committee for discussion on May 2, 2019. The online survey will also ask Committee members to weight the various criteria, since some of them may be more important to the Committee
209
Addison Bond Committee Keypad Polling
than others. The Committee will review these results as they finalize their recommendations to City Council.
Background Information Three tables with background information about the keypad polling results are attached to this memo.
Table 1 presents the results of all polling questions. The projects are listed individually. Columns in the table show the results for each project and each criterion. A final column shows the results when all criteria are combined and weighted equally. The table shows both the absolute number of responses and the percentage distribution of responses.
Table 2 presents these results, but only in terms of the percentage responses.
Table 3 ranks the projects according to the set of criteria. As in Exhibit 3 above, this ranking is developed by sorting the projects based on the percentage of responses of “Very Important”, and then the percentage of “Somewhat Important” responses.

TO: Town of Addison and 2019 Addison Bond Committee
FROM: Karen Walz FAICP, Principal
Strategic Community Solutions LLC
DATE: May 2, 2019
RE: Results of Online Surveys
The City Council of the Town of Addison has appointed a Bond Committee to make recommendations related to a possible bond election for November 2019. After the Bond Committee’s April 18, 2019 meeting, an online survey was used to gain input from committee members and Town staff about the 21 potential bond program projects. This report describes the technique and presents the results of the online survey. These results are intended to inform the Bond Committee’s continuing discussions; they are not intended to provide an automatic final ranking of projects.
Online Survey Methodology SurveyMonkey was used to deliver an online survey to participants. The questions were designed so that each person would rate each of the 21 potential projects according to each of the 8 criteria previously developed by the Committee. For each project and criteria, participants chose a rating on a scale from 1 to 10, with 10 being most important. Participants could also choose ‘NA’ for ‘not applicable’. There was also an opportunity for participants to make written comments about individual projects and about the bond program in general. The possible projects are listed in Attachment 1 and the list of criteria are presented in Attachment 2.
Lastly, participants were asked about the importance they attached to each of the 8 criteria. The responses to this question were used to develop a weighting system for the criteria, used in this analysis.
Attachment 3 is the set of all questions used in the survey.
The survey was available through a link provided to participants in email messages; it was available from Friday, April 19th through Thursday, April 25th. Twenty-five of the twenty-eight Committee members took part in the survey.
The survey was also provided to Town staff for their input. However, these responses were provided through a different email link. In this way, the staff and Committee responses can be evaluated separately. Seven staff members took part.
Committee Weighting of Criteria Attachment 4 presents the Committee’s input about the weighting of criteria. In this table, a weight of 4 is “Extremely Important”, a weight of 3 is “Very Important”, a weight of 2 is “Somewhat Important”, a weight of 1 is “Not Very Important”, and a response of “I’m Not Sure” was weighted “0”.
A weight of 4 would mean that all Committee members felt that criteria was “Extremely Important”. Three criteria were weighted 3.52 – Economic Vitality/Development, Safety and Security and Fiscal
231
Responsibility. Recreation and Leisure received the least weight among the criteria, but it was still weighted higher than 2.0, which would have meant everyone thought it was “Somewhat Important”.
Attachment 5 shows the results of the same weighting exercise, but for the input from Town staff. Staff
weighted “Improved Transportation” most highly at 3.57. Economic Vitality / Development, Strategic
Direction and Asset Management all were weighted over 3.0. Recreation and Leisure and Effective
Management received the least weight at 2.43.
Project Rankings The ratings by criteria, for each project, were tabulated and an average was calculated based on the number of quantitative responses. These ratings were then weighted using the values for ‘average weight’ from Attachment 4 (for the Committee) and from Attachment 5 (for staff). Attachment 6 provides the detailed rankings by individual criteria for the Committee and Attachment 7 provides this information for the staff input.
Exhibit 2 shows the overall ranking of possible bond projects. It is ordered based on the Committee’s ratings, with the highest-rated project listed first. The exhibit also includes the rankings by staff.

For the Committee, Project 3 (roof replacement) was most important, followed by Project 5 (HVAC). The next five projects were those that relate to improvements to existing roadways. Of these, Project 10 (Keller Springs Road) was most important. After these roadway improvements, the rest of the Committee’s top ten include Project 4 (Police Gun Range), Project 21 (Strategic Land Acquisition), and Project 6 (Athletic Club Master Plan improvements).
For the staff, the top ten projects are very similar, though the order is different. Staff included Project 2 (ADA) rather than Project 21 (Strategic Land Acquisition).
Four of the five top projects are the same for both groups. Project 3 (roof replacement) was the top project for the Committee and for staff. Projects 5 (HVAC), 10 (Keller Springs Road) and 12 (Quorum Drive) were also in the top five for both groups.
Other Comments Attachment 8 includes the written comments provided by Committee members about each project and the overall bond program. The last comment on this list, related to the Police Gun Range, is the only written comment from a staff member.
Next Steps The purpose of this survey is to provide the Committee information on their individual perspectives about the projects. It is not intended to be the Committee’s recommendation on the projects. At the Committee meeting on May 2nd, this information will be considered, along with other comments and discussion, and the Committee will make its recommendations to Council based on all this input.

Not suitable for bond funding. Technology normally has an expected life of 3 to 5 years.

LPR and ATMS are the most important here. Meter reading, drone and mesh network would be nice.
ADA should be done as each repair, maintenance or replace is accomplished, not as a stand alone. Pricing for anything must include applicable ADA requirements.
Most of the access can be handled via other street projects. Elevators are very important though a grant might be available for Town Hall since it is a historic building (and might NOT be required to be upgraded).

3. Roof Replacements on Town‐owned Buildings
This seems extremely important given the new AC units we will be installing soon. They need to be on sturdy, up‐to‐date roofs!
Water getting into buildings leads to mold remediation‐ guys in white suits and masks tearing into walls etc to treat mold‐ EXPENSIVE. Water inside buildings leads to more cost later such as mold remediation (men in white suits wearing masks) which is EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE.0 Replace roofs pronto!
It's imperative to budget maintenance dollars to ensure we're able to get the full estimated life value from these improvements.
4. Police Gun Range Air FiltrationSystem
This is important to the police, and having a well‐trained force is important to our community, even though it doesn't fit neatly into the criteria we set.
Need to remove toxins from firing guns. the largest of which is lead from the gun range and exercise room. Remove the toxins from the gun range and exercise room‐ keep first responders healthy. Get the toxic fumes our of gun range and exercise room to protect first responders and reduce potential health costs.
If we are able to address other maintenance issues through a bond, I would hope we are able to use dollars saved to address this item. This project is important to ensure our awesome officers are motivated to stay in Addison.
Can the police outsource or use another gun range?

this item should be considered along with Special Area Study Strategic Land Acquisition in that a consolidation of Town employees would be effective, while repurposing land for sale to private individuals or developers would take a very valuable asset that could be used for Town revenues. Such a windfall could be used strategically for many purposes.
This is a MUST HAVE for the city. We cannot afford to have our buildings collapse or be comprised in any way more than they may already be!!!
I think first and foremost, we must address our own infrastructure. This provides bang for the buck.

Since there has been an absolute absence of maintenance, for the safety and well being of our employees and visitors as well as to cut down on maintenance as well as FURTHER deterioration, Roof replacement is critical and a must.
Asset management plan says most of these are critical. Probably one of my top 3 concerns.
Buy memberships in the closest gun range which will have up to date air quality, range layout and practices, with out any town maintenance. Cheaper for a third party to have than the Town of Addison.
IFF could be used
This seems something like we could easily contract with another city or private provider to allow PD access to gun ranges.

Based on the 216,000 number of visits and membership of 4,000+ in the club ( less than or near 25% of Town population), plus we know that not all of the 4,000 members use the club, it would leave approximately 2.5 to 3.0 visits per month for all of the active members. Moving the front desk to face the doors with a larger space does not answer the question of "we may have non members entering". If we cannot take care of and watch the 7‐8 feet in front of the present desk to the elevator wall, how does moving the reception desk enhance anything.
While these are master plan projects, fixing the pool and hot tub are more important in day to day operations.

Updating a massive list, rather than doing obvious improvements only spends money. Again the amount spent to the member usage is way too low to address this, when there are other needs that could use the financing better.
Fixing pool and hot tub are important. These lobby reconfigure projects are more important that those in master plan.
This area basically only had any oversight by the residences bordering the pond. The pond is a pond and should look like a natural pond, to heck with the curbs etc. Many ponds have dirt walkways as in national and state parks. Why is this necessary? Plus again, usage to population is too low to spend this recommended amount of funds
Le Lacs will continue to deteriorate without repairs.

While rating high on our criteria, I feel this is a nice‐to‐have.

I wonder if companies in town would be willing to make donations for signage recognition and a PR/Thank You event and campaign.

A trail is a trail, leave all alone. 'Trail' designates a path it is not intended to be a sidewalk. Provide maps of the trails, with "wayfinding" and descriptions of sculptures etc.
Nice to have but not priority.
Based on the current property owners on this street, why redo a short distance. And differently do not obtain additional right of way or broader side walks and median.

If this is a designated route to the expected Dart complex where Town provided transportation from Dart terminal to business along Belt line etc will be to maintain our business environment, this is a MUST. If not a vital path to from Dart, forget this project. Second smallest daily vehicle usage,

Since we cannot break out basic necessary repairs from the beatification, I recommend all of the roads/transportation issues being separated from the other projects in a bond election. I am concerned that the big numbers for roads will cause a voting down of the whole bond election if everything is lumped together. At the same time, pulling out each road project as a separate vote would be too confusing, cumbersome and distracting for voters.

NOT a single additional property of any kind should be undertaken until the Town can prove that it can maintain what it has, can properly budget for maintenance and upkeep and has a use for the additional property. This is NOT NECESSARY and the timing is highly inappropriate to consider with the other more demanding needs for financing.

When we created the dog park, we wanted it to be community only. this move would bring in more traffic to that park, making it less safe for everyone who walks over with their dogs.
Most calls for service to Addison police are at intersections along Addison Rd. Don't add another intersection. If a developer wants the street, let him roll it into proposal to the city.

While this meets our criteria for good, effective management and would help with econ dev, I believe the market should decide the best and highest use with the city's advise and consent. I would not vote for this project, and feel that if it is included, that those who disagree philosophically with the city helping developers buy land will vote down the entire bond package. This is the sort of project that makes the news and gets negative attention.

Town has not "strategically studied what, where, why and use of what we have NOW. Do not need any SPECIAL study as outlined, since if the present structures/property are reviewed there will be plenty to "STUDY".
Revitalizing Inwood Road could benefit from strategic land acquisition as could Midway. Possibly some by airport.

I haven't seen/heard any reference to the impact our new DART Cotton Belt station is expected to have on these various assets and how that impacts the towns previously approved strategic plans and transportation plans. Those might make some of the transport projects more important.

We want to improve the quality of life for all the Addison residents. We want to live in a safe and secure Town that is fiscally responsible.
I found this format to be difficult... It is hard to make such weighty decisions in this format.

"Transportation" had "walkability" ‐ listed, I guess this for all 250 that walk anywhere. "Economic" etc‐ left off The Town must be the PARTNER for each business or Addison becomes a ghost town. "Management", "Direction", "Asset", "Fiscal"‐ these are directly the result of our city council, directors and employees doing the right thing, morally and ethically, not a BOND issue.

Community Bond Advisory Committee Meeting Meeting Notes May 2, 2019

Council Members present: Marlin Willesen and Ivan Hughes.
Ralph Doherty opened the meeting with the approval of the April 18th meeting notes.
Karen Walz from Strategic Community Solutions reviewed the survey results from the online survey given to both committee members and Town staff.
During and after the presentation, the Committee asked several questions.
Is it common for a bond committee and municipal staff to have such similar results on a proposed bond survey?
While it is not uncommon for staff and committee members to have similar ideals for what a municipality needs, the similarity in the results from Addison were higher than usual.
With a bond committee that is as small as this one, could one person’s voting input sway the results?
No outlier data was evaluated for the results of our study. We took an overall average of all the voting results to score the proposed projects. With this, a singular vote to one extreme would not alter the overall average to the point of significantly affecting the associated projects rank.
How much does the Town have in cash or liquid assets? Why would we borrow money if we have enough cash on hand to pay for the proposed projects?
296
Currently the Town has approximately $90 Million in liquid assets and cash, most of that money is designated for current projects and the rest is reserved as an operational safeguard. We issue debt to spread out payments over a long period of time and share the tax burden over generations.
The committee discussed which projects to include in the bond propositions and at what level to include them. Attached is a summary of those projects selected.
The next Committee meeting will be on May 9, 2019 at the Addison Tree House Event Room, 14681 Midway Road, Suite 200 from 5:30 to 7:30. The subject will be a discussion of propositions to propose.
The meeting was adjourned at 7:30.

Community Bond Advisory Committee Meeting Meeting Notes May 9, 2019
The seventh meeting of the Community Bond Advisory Committee was held on May 9, 2019 at the Addison Treehouse Event Room.
The committee members present: Bruce Arfsten, Taylor Bowen, Juli Branson, Lary Brown, Colleen Campbell, Robert Catalani, Mary Jo Cater, Nancy Craig, Chris DeFrancisco, Ralph Doherty, Kent Domingue, Jerry Dougan, Margie Gunther, Brooks Haley, Edwin Keith, JT McPherson, Jimmy Niemann, Liz Oliphant, Suzann Oliver, Eileen Resnik, Craig Reynolds, Jason Rivera, Virginia Wallace, Nancy Williams and Rob Wright.
Staff members present: Wes Pierson, Ashley Mitchell, Olivia Riley, Rob Bourestom, Hamid Khaleghipour, Shawn Cheairs, Janna Tidwell, Amanda Turner, Ashlee Powell, Charles Goff and Lisa Pyles.
Council Members present: Marlin Willesen and Ivan Hughes.
Ralph Doherty opened the meeting proposing approval of the May 2nd meeting notes. Minor changes will be made to the notes and they will be presented again for approval.
The committee discussed which projects to include in their recommendation to the Council and how to divide them into propositions.
During and after the presentation, the Committee asked several questions.
Can the Town acquire land without money from bond proceeds?
The Town can purchase land without a bond proposition, however, this will be a difficult task as the Town may then not have the money on hand to purchase the property when it becomes available. Having bond monies set aside for land purchase allows the Town the flexibility to be proactive in purchasing available land when it is first on the market. If the Town must wait for or find the necessary funding, an opportunity to purchase the property might be lost.
Why do we include all the different roads into one bond program when the work will not be started on some projects for 6 or more years, and we could potentially have another bond issuance by that time?
Yes, the decision could be made to include only those roads that could be done in the near future and the rest could be reserved for a subsequent bond election. Putting a number of streets in one
301
bond program, however, allows staff to plan for the future design and then construction more efficiently.
Would the Town issue bond money for all roads in one proposition at the same time?
No, the debt would only be issued when the funding is needed for a specified project and not before.
The committee discussed which projects to include in the bond propositions and at what level to include them. Attached is a summary of the projects selected, and the associated propositions to include them in. The next Committee meeting will be on May 23, 2019 at the Addison Tree House Event Room, 14681 Midway Road, Suite 200 from 5:30 to 7:30. The subject will be the final report. The meeting was adjourned at 7:00.
